After graduating from junior high school, Zhao Zhenzhu waited at home for more than two years and finally got the opportunity to work as a temporary worker at the supply and marketing cooperative.
After a series of exams, Zhao Zhenzhu became a salesgirl at a supply and marketing cooperative, oh no, a salesperson.
More than half a year later, Zhao Tianyu got into trouble.
During those years, the movement was intense and schools were often suspended.
Zhao Qingshan was busy with work, and Wu Meiyun was often ill. Neither of them had the time nor the energy to take care of Zhao Tianyu. Before, Zhao Tianyu was taken care of by Zhao Zhenzhu.
After Zhao Zhenzhu went to work, Zhao Tianyu had no one to supervise him, and soon he mixed with a group of "young generals" in the town and often followed them to watch the struggle.
Once, a "bad element" knelt on a high platform to be criticized. The scene was very lively, and Zhao Tianyu was also there.
When it came to the part of throwing rotten eggs at the "bad guys", Zhao Tianyu was stuffed with a "rotten egg" by his companion.
Zhao Tianyu was so excited that he threw the weapon without even looking, hitting the "bad guy" right on the forehead.
The "bad guy" fell to the ground, bleeding profusely.
The people around him screamed, and Zhao Tianyu realized that what he had just thrown out were not rotten eggs, but egg-sized stones.
Fortunately, the hospital was not far away, and because of timely treatment, the "bad guy" did not die. However, he had a big scar on his face, disfiguring his appearance.
Zhao Qingshan felt very guilty.
That "bad guy" and Zhao Qingshan used to be friends.
In fact, the man didn't do anything bad, but because he said something wrong, he was targeted and labeled a "bad element."
His own son threw a stone at his former friend and almost killed him.
This incident made Zhao Qingshan feel extremely guilty.
In order to compensate the family, Zhao Qingshan gave Zhao Zhenzhu's temporary worker position to the family's daughter.
Zhao Tianyu was also frightened by the incident and was depressed for a long time.
In order to prevent Zhao Tianyu from continuing to hang out with the "youngsters" and to prevent Zhao Tianyu from having the opportunity to make bigger mistakes, Zhao Qingshan retired early and let Zhao Tianyu take over and work in the supply and marketing cooperative.
When Zhao Qingshan applied for retirement, someone from above talked to him. The person said that a county leader admired Zhao Qingshan very much and was planning to transfer him to Taohua Town as the top leader at the end of the year, so he asked Zhao Qingshan to withdraw his retirement application.
Zhao Qingshan refused.
Compared with his son's future, Zhao Qingshan feels that his own future is not important.
If Zhao Qingshan had not retired early, he might have become a member of the Qingshan County leadership team.
Fortunately, Zhao Qingshan’s efforts were not in vain.
After that incident, Zhao Tianyu changed his impetuous temper, worked diligently and conscientiously in the supply and marketing cooperative, made a lot of achievements, and was promoted to deputy director of the supply and marketing cooperative some time ago.
Both Zhao Qingshan and Wu Meiyun felt very sorry for their daughter.
In order to clean up the mess for Zhao Tianyu, Zhao Zhenzhu's interests were sacrificed.
Because she wanted to compensate Zhao Zhenzhu, when Zhao Zhenzhu got married, Wu Meiyun gave her dowry box and all the things inside to Zhao Zhenzhu, leaving nothing for Zhao Tianyu.
Wu Meiyun felt that all the children were her own flesh and blood, and since her son got Zhao Qingshan's job, all her dowry should go to her daughter, which was fair.
"Mom, don't say these things in front of Xiaoyu, he will be sad. Xiaoyu is not to blame for what happened back then. If anyone should be blamed, blame the person who stuffed the stone into Xiaoyu's pocket." Zhao Zhenzhu advised Wu Meiyu.
Back then, Zhao Tianyu might have been tricked. Otherwise, how could a rotten egg turn into stone?
However, there were many people at the scene at that time, and Zhao Tianyu was so excited that he didn't pay any attention to who stuffed the stone into his mouth.
Zhao Zhenzhu gave up her job willingly and never blamed her brother.
Zhao Zhenzhu is very open-minded. As long as her family is well, what does a job matter?
Even though she doesn't have a job, she has a pair of hardworking hands and is not afraid of not being able to support herself.
Zhao Zhenzhu didn't let Wu Meiyun bring up the past because she didn't want Zhao Tianyu to always feel sorry for her.
Zhao Tianyu was just 16 years old when he took over. He was young and had little life experience. After working for a few years, Zhao Tianyu finally understood what his sister had sacrificed for him.
Although temporary workers may not necessarily be converted to regular employees, two of the temporary workers who entered the company at the same time as Zhao Zhenzhu have been converted to regular employees one after another.
The work abilities of those two people are far inferior to Zhao Zhenzhu's.
The worse Zhao Zhenzhu's life was in the Zhou family, the more guilty Zhao Tianyu felt.
If Zhao Zhenzhu had a job, even if it was a temporary job, she would not have been disliked by Ding Ermei for "marrying above her station" after marrying Zhou Bingchen.
In the past few years, Zhao Tianyu also asked people to find a job for Zhao Zhenzhu.
Unfortunately, it is so hard to find a job.
After Zhao Zhenzhu found out, she told Zhao Tianyu to stop making trouble.
Finding a job requires a lot of favors.
After getting married, Zhao Zhenzhu was busy having children and raising them, so she couldn't leave even if she had the chance.
Besides, if Zhou Bingchen has worked in the army for a certain number of years or has been promoted to a certain position, he can bring Zhao Zhenzhu and her son to join the army.
At that time, Zhao Zhenzhu was looking forward to reuniting with Zhou Bingchen with her children.
"Zhenzhu, Xiaoyu is blessed to have a sister like you." Wu Meiyu patted Zhao Zhenzhu's hand and put aside her worries.
"Mom, I'm not at a disadvantage. Have you forgotten the box you gave me? That was your dowry, and my brother has nothing." Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.
"Your father and I have never had anything good in our lives. Xiaoyu got your father's job, and the little stuff I have is not to be seen in public. You can't use it now if I give it to you, so you're still at a loss." Wu Meiyu sighed.
Wu Meiyu was determined to arrange the future of her two children, but unfortunately, many things are not what you want.
"Mom, in a few years, these things of mine will be worth much more than my brother's work. I won't lose anything." Zhao Zhenzhu comforted Wu Meiyu.
Zhao Zhenzhu has the experience of two lives.
Although Zhao Tianyu's job looks good now, in fact, in the 1990s, "iron rice bowl" was no longer popular. At Zhao Tianyu's age, he would have caught up with the wave of layoffs in the late 1990s.
By the end of the 1990s, any one of Zhao Zhenzhu's box of treasures could fetch more money than Zhao Tianyu's salary of several decades.
"Mom is very happy that you think this way." Wu Meiyu patted Zhao Zhenzhu's hand and said with relief.
In Wu Meiyu's opinion, no matter how valuable something is, it cannot compare to family affection.
Nowadays, it is common for brothers and sisters to fall out over a job, or even stop talking to each other forever.
People like Zhao Zhenzhu are rare.
"Mom, are your ancestors a wealthy family?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked curiously.
Wu Meiyun has excellent tailoring skills and her embroidery skills are even better.
However, Wu Meiyu never shows off her embroidery skills in front of others.
Before the movement, Wu Meiyu would avoid people and embroider handkerchiefs and pillowcases at home.
After the movement came, Wu Meiyu never picked up the embroidery needle again.
